 configures settings of one or more parameters of the horticulture light bulb to achieve the one or more objectives. 
   
     
     
         2 . The horticulture light bulb of  claim 1 , wherein the configuration component selects the one or more objectives from a library of objectives stored in the memory. 
     
     
         3 . The horticulture light bulb of  claim 1 , wherein the configuration component performs one or more artificial intelligence processes to create the one or more objectives. 
     
     
         4 . The horticulture light bulb of  claim 1 , wherein the configuration component employs the one or more instruments to obtain information about the horticulture environment and determine a state of the one or more characteristics of the horticulture environment. 
     
     
         5 . The horticulture light bulb of  claim 4 , wherein the configuration component generates a confidence metric indicative of a confidence of a determination of the state of the one or more characteristics by performing cross-check validation. 
     
     
         6 . The horticulture light bulb of  claim 1 , wherein the configuration component determines the capabilities of the horticulture light bulb by obtaining information from one or more knowledge sources. 
     
     
         7 . The horticulture light bulb of  claim 1 , wherein the configuration component employs the one or more instruments to discover communication networks associated with the horticulture environment. 
     
     
         8 . The horticulture light bulb of  claim 7 , wherein the horticulture light bulb can communicate with one or more other horticulture light bulbs via a communication network. 
     
     
         9 . A system comprising:
 a plurality of horticulture light bulbs configured for installation in horticulture environment;   one or more instruments located in the plurality of horticulture light bulbs;   a memory that stores computer executable components; and   a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory, wherein the computer executable components comprise:
 a configuration component that determines one or more objectives of the installation of the plurality of horticulture light bulbs based on one or more characteristics of the horticulture environment in which the plurality of horticulture light bulbs are installed and capabilities of the plurality of horticulture light bulbs; and 
 an operation component that:
 performs one or more artificial intelligence processes to determine at least one action for one or more of the plurality of horticulture light bulbs to perform to achieve at least one of the one or more objectives by modifying the horticulture environment; and 
 
 executes the at least one action. 
   
     
     
         10 . The system of  claim 9 , wherein the horticulture lights form a mesh communication network to relay communications amongst each other and to other devices. 
     
     
         11 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein a horticulture light bulb of the plurality of horticulture light bulbs can communicate by the mesh communication network to identify other horticulture light bulbs of the plurality of horticulture light bulbs and other devices of a device ecosystem. 
     
     
         12 . The system of  claim 11 , wherein the plurality of horticulture light bulbs coordinate amongst themselves to make decisions regarding the at least one action. 
     
     
         13 . The system of  claim 9 , wherein the configuration component selects the one or more objectives from a library of objectives stored in the memory. 
     
     
         14 . The system of  claim 9 , wherein the configuration component performs one or more artificial intelligence processes to create the one or more objectives. 
     
     
         15 . A method comprising:
 determining, by a horticulture light bulb, one or more capabilities of the horticulture light bulb;   determining, by the horticulture light bulb, one or more objectives of an installation of the horticulture light bulb based on one or more characteristics of a horticulture environment in which the horticulture light bulb;   performing, by the horticulture light bulb, one or more artificial intelligence processes to determine one or more actions for the horticulture light bulb to perform to achieve the one or more objectives by modifying the horticulture environment; and   executing the one or more actions.   
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 15 , further comprising:
 employing, by the horticulture light bulb, one or more instruments to obtain information about the horticulture environment and determine a state of the one or more characteristics of the horticulture environment.   
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 16 , further comprising:
 generating, by the horticulture light bulb, a confidence metric indicative of a confidence of a determination of the state of the one or more characteristics by performing cross-check validation across various sources.   
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 15 , wherein the determining one or more capabilities of the horticulture light bulb comprises probing a system bus of the horticulture light bulb. 
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 15 , further comprising:
 employing, by the horticulture light bulb, one or more instruments to discover communication networks associated with the horticulture environment.   
     
     
         20 . The method of  claim 19 , further comprising:
 communicating, by the horticulture light bulb, with one or more other horticulture light bulbs via a communication network.
